Definitions

  • the present invention relates to semiconductive materials and, more particularly, the present invention relates to semiconductive glass fibers and fabrics.
  • Semiconducting materials are widely known at the present time. These materials have been developed and investigated for substantial periods of time for many applications.
  • One of the applications for which such materials have been developed is a protective and insulating material which is able to dissipate static electricity.
  • Semiconducting materials which will dissipate static electricity have been developed for many uses.
  • the term "semi-conducting" herein refers to a material having a resistivity in the range of 10 -1 ohms per square to 10 12 ohms per square, which upper and lower resistivity values define insulators and conductors respectively.
  • Some such materials generally comprise a fabric which is impregnated with a semiconducting material and thus becomes semiconductive.
  • Another method of making such semiconductive materials is to utilize a carbon or other type of semiconducting paint and paint it onto a particular type of fabric whereupon the fabric becomes semiconductive.
  • One of the difficulties with such materials has been that they are difficult to form into intricate and complex shapes.
  • such prior art semiconductive materials have been susceptible to temperature changes and changes in ambient conditions.
  • paints which contain conductive fillers are difficult to apply reproducibly, because the resulting resistivity of the cured coating is highly dependent on such variables as mixing time and solvent content.
  • most such materials are quite expensive to produce and are difficult to justify for applications where large amounts of them have to be used.
  • Such semiconductive materials are particularly glass fabrics that are semiconductive and that have the above properties have been found suitable for many applications and are suitable for applications in the construction of numerous devices.
  • a semiconducting material comprising glass fibers which are heat-treated in the substantial absence of oxygen in the presence of an effective amount of organic compound to secure the desired semiconducting characteristics.
  • the glass fibers may be utilized as chopped strands, filament roving, or woven into glass cloth.
  • the glass is desirably selected from glass formed from silicate glass fibers or may be selected from glass which is formed from magnesium aluminosilicate glass fibers.
  • the silicate glass fibers are normally E-Glass which has a lower melting temperature than is the case with the other glass fibers formed from S-Glass.
  • the glass fibers or glass fabrics are made semiconducting in accordance with the present invention by depositing an organic compound on the glass fibers by any method, preferably by either immersing or dipping, spraying or brushing the organic compound on the glass cloth or fibers and pyrolyzing the organic compound to produce a pyrolysate containing largely carbon in the absence of oxygen.
  • the glass fiber or glass cloth can be made semiconducting such that it has a resistivity in the range of 200 to 10,000,000 ohms per square.
  • the semiconductivity or resistivity of glass fibers can be varied as desired by the amount and species of organic material that is added to the glass cloth or glass fibers, the pyrolysis temperature, time cycle, and the pyrolysis atmosphere. Further, the resistivity of the glass fibers may also be varied by immersing the pyrolyzed glass cloth or impregnating the glass cloth with various types of resins such as thermosetting polyester or epoxy resins.
  • the semiconducting material of the present invention can be formed from various glass fibers, it is preferably formed from E-Glass and S-Glass fibers. These are two common glass fibers that are employed filaments or woven into glass cloth for industrial applications.
  • One basic difference between the S-Glass from E-Glass is that it can tolerate higher temperatures; that is, its melting point is higher than that of E-Glass.
  • Any type of glass fibers can be utilized in the instant case and particularly any type of glass fibers that can be woven into glass cloth.
  • the organic compound which is deposited thereon is an organic compound selected from organic compounds in which a majority of the atoms in the compound are hydrogen, carbon and oxygen atoms, or organic compounds in which a majority of the atoms are carbon and hydrogen atoms.
  • the organic compound may be any organic compound composed of such atoms in which the volatility of the compound is low at the temperatures at which pyrolytic degradation begins to occur. This is necessary to ensure that a significant amount of the said organic material does not volatilize and leave the glass substrate, but rather remains on the glass as a residue, and ultimately is transformed into a conductive substance composed primarily of carbon.
  • the organic compound not have a boiling point or sublimation point below 600° C., and that it degrade to produce a nonvolatile char or residue that ultimately results in a semiconducting substance composed largely of carbon. Further, even if the compound in its original state does not meet these conditions, if it polymerizes upon elevating the temperature to a compound that meets these criteria, then it is suitable in the present application.
  • any organic compound even one that has minor amounts of atoms of other elements such as nitrogen and sulfur will work in the instant case so long as the majority of atoms in the organic compound are composed of either carbon, hydrogen and oxygen or carbon and hydrogen.
  • One very suitable organic compound that has been found in the present case to fit the above definitions is starch, particularly amylose starch.
  • Starch is frequently used as a sizing the manufacture of glass fabrics because when coated on the glass fibers, it imparts enough strength to allow the glass threads to endure the rigors of the weaving process.
  • the amylose starch is preferred, because of its solubility and dispersibility.
  • a starch which is composed of both the soluble and insoluble component can be also utilized in the instant case.
  • Such starch generally has the formula: ##STR1## see, e.g., Fieser and Fieser, Textbook of Organic Chemistry, D. C. Heath and Company (1950).
  • the starch of the above formula is composed of a soluble component which is known as amylose and an insoluble residue which is known as amylopectin. Either type can be utilized in the instant application, although the soluble component is preferred.
  • a lubricant which may be a distillate or vegetable oil, or one of the compounds indicated below. This substance is used to impart lubrication to and between the individual glass fibers, and as such permits the threads and cloths manufactured from these fibers to be subjected to mechanical stresses as incurred by bending, folding and twisting without breakage of the fibers. It may also function to disperse the starch on the fibers and allow it to adhere thereto.
  • Distillate oils are obtained from petroleum.
  • the basic constituents of petroleum are olefinic and aliphatic hydrocarbons.
  • Petroleum contains some light hydrocarbons of 5 or less carbon atoms.
  • Fractions from natural gasoline or from petroleum containing hydrocarbons with 6 or more carbon atoms are complex mixtures not resolvable on a practicable scale into homogeneous chemical entities.
  • Extensive research has resulted in isolation and identification of 28 paraffin hydrocarbons from the gasoline fraction. These include all the straight-chain hydrocarbons to n-decane and 18 branched chain alkanes, ranging from isobutane to methylnonanes.
  • Vegetable oils used alone or in conjunction with starch provide not only the desired lubricity, but other advantages over distillate oils in that they can be made to polymerize readily.
  • the vegetable oil is preferably chosen from a group of unsaturated triglyceride oils. Such oils are composed of long chain unsaturated fatty acids which have reacted with glycerol. A typical unsaturated triglyceride oil is depicted below: ##STR2## Such oils polymerize in the presence of oxygen to form a tough organic film. The polymerization process involves free radical addition polymerization, and crosslinking by oxygen atoms. Vegetable oils do not consist of a single chemical formula, but are mixtures of the reaction products of different fatty acids with glycerol. The following Table I lists the approximate fatty acid content in some of the most common vegetable oils:
  • oils derived from animal by-products also contain a degree of unsaturation, and will polymerize in the presence of oxygen. Table II shows the composition of some of these oils:
  • oils once polymerized, will pyrolyze readily at temperatures above 600° C. to yield the desired carbon product on the glass fibers.
  • Some of these oils are triglycerides produced by the reaction of glycerol with conjugated fatty acids. Such oils will polymerize more readily at elevated temperatures to yield products which have the desired pyrolyzation properties.
  • the other oils which are formed from non-conjugated fatty acids polymerize less readily; but at temperatures of 600° C. or above will react to yield products with the desired pyrolyzation properties (see "Federation Series on Coating Technology; Unit 3; Oils For Organic Coating”; published by Federation of Societies for Paint Technology, pages 1-47, (1974)).
  • the most preferred organic compound in the instant case is a mixture of 30-70% by weight starch with 30-70% by weight of one of the above oils.
  • the organic compound can also be totally selected from one of the above preferred triglyceride vegetable oils and from one of the marine oils of Table II.
  • Other organic compounds or mixtures thereof may be utilized as organic compounds in the instant case, provided they have relatively low vapor pressures at the pyrolysis temperatures. For this reason, many of the most suitable compounds are polymeric materials, resinous materials which polymerize upon heating, or materials which can be made to polymerize by reaction with another reagent such as oxygen or water. Although a wide variety of polymeric materials exist which can be utilized in the instant case, a few that have been picked as representative are:
  • the preferable combination is one in which the solid compounds at a concentration of 30-70% by weight are mixed with one of the oils at a concentration of 30-70% by weight.
  • an effective amount of such organic compound which is capable of rendering the glass fibers semiconductive is defined as that minimum amount of organic compound which when pyrolyzed on the glass fibers will impart to the glass fibers some conductivity. More preferably, there is utilized 0.5-30% by weight of the organic compound based on the weight of the glass fibers. If more than 30% is utilized, then the glass fibers may accumulate such a large quantity of char that the char does not adhere readily to the fibers. Such a condition results in major increases in resistivity as the glass fibers are flexed, due to removal of carbonaceous material from the fibers.
  • the organic compound mixture More preferably there is utilized from 2-4% by weight of the organic compound mixture based on the weight of the glass fibers.
  • This organic compound is added to the glass fibers preferably as they are formed or subsequently after they have been woven into glass cloth.
  • the organic compound may be added to the glass fibers as they are formed as a lubricant and sizing agent.
  • a dispersant To the organic compound there is preferably added a dispersant.
  • suitable dispersants are water, hydrocarbon solvents, aromatic solvents, ketone solvents and alcohol solvents.
  • dispersants are acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, xylene, toluene, cyclohexane, cycloheptane, methanol, ethanol, etc.
  • the organic compound is applied to the glass fiber as stated previously, either by immersion such as dipping, spraying, brushing, etc.
  • the organic compound may be applied after the glass fibers are formed into fabric. Preferably, however, it is applied before the fibers are formed into a glass fabric.
  • a glass fabric After it is formed, it may be placed in an oven to cure any reactive resins on the fabric if necessary. It is then placed in a furnace where oxygen has been largely or entirely excluded, either by pulling a vacuum, or by introduction of another gas such as argon or nitrogen. The glass is then heated in the furnace to temperatures of at least 600° C. and up to 850° C. and more preferably from 650° C. to 750° C. The temperature to which the glass fabric can be heated to pyrolyze the organic compound will vary depending on the type of glass fibers. Thus, if S-Glass is utilized, then the temperature should not exceed 850° C. If E-Glass is utilized, then the temperature should not exceed 720° C.
  • the pyrolysis temperature is in the range of 650° C. to 750° C., for most glass fabrics.
  • the pyrolysis is preferably carried out at atmospheric pressure, although pressures above or below atmospheric may be utilized.
  • the heating is carried on for a period of time of anywhere from a few minutes to 48 hours, and more preferably from 1 hour to 20 hours.
  • This period of time is normally in the range of two hours, depending on the volume of material, and its form, i.e., fibers, fabric or yarn.
  • the other important condition necessary in the process of forming the carbon deposited glass fiber is the atmosphere in which it is heated.
  • the atmosphere in which the pyrolysis is carried out should be an atmosphere which contains no oxygen such as an inert gas atmosphere.
  • inert gases that can be utilized are, for instance, nitrogen, helium, argon, neon, xenon, etc. Argon or nitrogen are the preferred inert gas atmosphere since they are most readily available.
  • the glass fibers After the glass fibers have been pyrolyzed, they are cooled to room temperature to form semiconductive glass fibers.
  • This type of glass fabric may be used for many applications in which an inexpensive but semiconducting insulative tape of superior strength and abrasion resistance is desired.
  • a glass fabric formed from glass fibers having a resistivity preferably in the range of 200 to 10,000,000 ohms per square which can be further increased by the immersion or the impregnation of the glass tape with other plastics, such as epoxies and thermosetting resins.
  • other plastics such as epoxies and thermosetting resins.
  • the resistivity may be varied to a lower or higher value as described by impregnation with other resins or by varying the pyrolysis time-temperature cycle.
  • the test apparatus consisted of a ohmmeter connected to a probe.
  • the probe comprised two parallel pieces of brass plates. Each plate was 1" wide by 1/16" in thickness and was spaced 1" apart. These brass plates were attached 1" apart on either side of a 1" ⁇ 1" ⁇ 5" long, nonconductive plastic bar.
  • the 1" wide by 1/16" thickness of the two plates was applied over the fabric to be tested with a pressure of about 15 lbs. or slightly over.
  • the current that was then passed from one brass plate to the other was created by a 9-volt battery.
  • the resistivity or conductance of the fabric was then measured on the ohmmeter. Typically, five readings were taken on the ohmmeter and the average of these readings was utilized as the resistivity.
  • a 72-yard roll of 3/4" wide and 0.004" thick woven fiberglass tape made from E-Glass was obtained from Carolina Narrow Fabrics Company, Winston-Salem, N.C., and had about 1% by weight of oil and starch sizing that was applied by the manufacturer.
